Ad Donnelly Sent on 12/07/2026⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Perfect Wedding Day at Clearwell Castle
We got married at Clearwell Castle on 27th June 2026 and can honestly say it exceeded every expectation we had.
From the moment we first visited, we knew it was somewhere special. The castle itself is stunning, with beautiful grounds, incredible ceremony spaces and a real sense of occasion that made our wedding feel magical from start to finish.
What truly sets Clearwell apart is the team. Every member of staff was professional, organised, friendly and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. The planning process was seamless, and on the day itself everything ran like clockwork. We felt completely relaxed knowing we were in such capable hands.
Our guests were blown away by the venue. Many commented that it was the best wedding they had ever attended. The food was excellent, the service was flawless, and the attention to detail throughout the day was outstanding.
As a same-sex couple, we also felt completely welcomed and celebrated throughout the entire process. The team made us feel special from beginning to end and helped create a day that reflected us perfectly.
The castle provided the most incredible backdrop for our photographs, and everywhere you looked there was another beautiful space to enjoy. From the ceremony to the reception and evening party, every part of the day felt effortless and memorable.
If you're considering Clearwell Castle for your wedding, we couldn't recommend it highly enough. It gave us the most amazing day of our lives and memories that we, along with our family and friends, will cherish forever.
Thank you to everyone at Clearwell Castle for making our dream wedding a reality.

Gold star venue and staff
I cannot rate this venue and it's team on site highly enough. All of our guests commented on how professional, friendly and all round super stars the staff were throughout our day. They made sure everything ran smoothly and I no issues or stress were bought to me. Ann my wedding manager was an absolute superstar! Nothing was an issue and she kept the day flowing and guests informed. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, our guests were totally overwhelmed by the beauty of the castle and grounds. Our wedding took place in the middle of a heatwave and was around 32-34degrees. Our ceremony was outside and the venue did everything to keep guests comfortable, we sat them literally as we were about to start so they could stay in the shade, they let them retreat to shade during the signing of certificates and just got them back for our exit. We had water stations all around the venue and we'd provided guests with paper fans. The venue and it's accomodation doesn't have any Aircon, it did get quite warm indoors but we had all windows and doors open and guests managed many just needed to step out from time to time. But everyone still had the most amazing day! The food was devine and the quails scotch egg canape was a guest favourite with staff being ambushed when more came out!! I truly believe the venue and staff played a big part in the magic we felt on our day and I would recommend them in a heartbeat.Clearwell Castle's reply:

Emma Sent on 22/05/2026The best day!
We got married here on the 10th May and the day was perfect, Ela did the most fantastic job of running everything smoothly. The food was all amazing! I am glad we upgraded to luxe as we didn’t have to worry about decorations and all the added extras made a real difference to our day.
To be able to stay in keepers cottage was perfect for the night before as this saved a wedding morning stress of getting to the venue. Thank you so much to everyone at clearwell castle.Clearwell Castle's reply:

Brilliant venue!
We had our big day on 7th May 2026. The venue was stunning and although it looked as though the forcast was not on our side, we managed to get married outdoors. The staff were lovely and supportive throughout. Although some additional items can be pricey, they are very accomodating in bringing your own decor to the venue. I made our table centrepieces, signage etc. and the staff are happy to set all of these up.
The food was lovely and we had many compliments from guests. We had guests also state that it was the best wedding they have ever attended with one stating that because their children were talking about how it was the best day of their lives that it is actually sad that nothing is likely to measure up which is a massive compliment to not just ourselves but also the venue and how hard they worked.
The wedding support team were very responsive and allowed us to make payments whenever we requested as long as it was prior to the final invoice.
Once paid, we were also able tp make additional purchases and add rooms/guests with ease.
Thank you clearwell, Emma and the team for making our day all the more special!Clearwell Castle's reply:

Kelly Sent on 03/05/2026Stunning, magical venue
We had a lovely day at Clearwell Castle. It is a gorgeous, dramatic venue and has stunning grounds. We felt very much like royalty all day. The food and drink is lovely and the staff are friendly and accommodating. Staying the night before was a big perk. We really enjoyed the hot tub at Keeper's Cottage! On the day, there were a few small errors but nothing that a guest would notice. We would absolutely recommend this venue if you want to experience a magical wedding, where everything is taken care of for you, with minimal stress.Clearwell Castle's reply:

What to say other than wow - a fairytale wedding come true.
The castle itself is stunning, and with some of their packages it is very good value for money, in an idyllic location.
The staff were absolutely amazing, and we were so lucky to have Ela as our wedding manager - she was incredible.
Highly highly recommend Clearwell Castle for your wedding!Clearwell Castle's reply:

Rhian Sent on 15/04/2026Fairy tale venue!
Our wedding at Clearwell was pure happiness. We booked the Wyndham for the night before (Friday) so it meant we had the whole weekend with our loved ones. We were torn between a venue where we could take over and DIY it all to make it completely us, or to go with a wedding venue that just do weddings. We are so so glad we picked Clearwell and the Country House Weddings team because by gosh do they know what they're doing! They offer a base package and it's not just some mill of the same wedding over and over again, you get so many choices and options to really make it your own special experience. Their packages just make sure you have everything covered (and includes all the things you probably forgot about) and then you get to do all the fun bits on top. Our personal wedding manager Ela was a total dream to work with. She was so calm and handled every random question and idea that we threw her way. On the actual day she was there throughout (holding my mum's hand at times!) and you really feel the work everyone puts in. Everyone there works so hard to make it a wonderful day for you and we absolutely loved every moment of being there. Thank you for making our wedding the happiest day.Clearwell Castle's reply:

Anthony Sent on 01/04/2026What an amazing day
Clearwell Castle isn’t just a fantastic venue—it’s a place where your wedding dreams genuinely come to life. We would recommend it to absolutely anyone. The castle itself is overflowing with character, but it’s the people who make it unforgettable.
From the moment we chose Clearwell, we were given our wedding planner, Rosie, and she became the heart of our journey. She wasn’t just helpful; she was extraordinary. What could have been overwhelming became calm and manageable. What might have been confusing became clear and simple.
Rosie didn’t just guide us—she lifted the entire experience. She was the icing on an already perfect cake, and we’ll always be grateful for the care, warmth, and magic she brought to our day.Clearwell Castle's reply:
